Bowling.

BWAHAHAHA.

I feel so noob please.

Had the post-exam activities.. Sports Enrichment today. BOWLING! LALALA. We took like half an hour to reach the Orchid Country Club at Yishun. Damn, why can't they find someplace else which is like nearer, so we can bowl more too?

At first it was quite boring luhh. Like, I reached and got my pair of shoes. Damn, I didn't notice that stupid pair consisted of one size 23 and the other, size 24. Only when I put it on did I realise one was big and the other was uber tight. Then I checked and finally realised it. UH. What a waste of time. Then, got a change of shoes. We had to wait and wait and wait for everyone else in the group (lanes 9-16) to settle down and gather in front of lane #13. The coach was.. hm, let me recall. Peter, if I'm not wrong. Okay lah, he was quite nice. But quite luo suo also. Talk and talk and talk; the others began to do some hands on, we were still listening to him talk.

Then finally we got up, did warmups.

Started off with the.. finishing position. We were made to stay in that position and swing. LOLness. And then we had to stand right at the lane and throw the ball. OHMYZORD, how do you throw directly from there. But anyway.

Then we were taught like to release the ball, first clear the thumb, then the other two fingers. Ah. Finally that 4-step finishing position. DAMN. I hate it. It's like, starting with the RIGHT foot and taking only FOUR steps. I usually start with my left and take five to six steps.

So in the midst of trying to get used to that style, I got a gutterball on my first throw. BWAHAHAHA.

Following that, I didn't score any more gutters. YAYness. But in total I only had ONE strike, while gay Liboon had TWO. Ah well. One beats none anyway.

FINALLY FINALLY we could play at our own pace with bowling balls and doing the approach. Lalala. That's the best part, because the rest was more or less boring. LOL. I was using an 8-pound ball, as usual. It was bloody scary can. The coach was like staring at all of us or something, and it was like as if he was always at very very nearby lanes. He said I didn't swing high enough. Bahh. Then he said if there were to be a bowling team, join.
I was like. UMM. Er ok thankyou.
LOL.

Wei An was so happy when she hit her first pin. She started to jump around and sing out loud that she hit a pin. I got a 7 or 8, then I was *grumble grumble* and Esther was staring at me and saying by doing that I'm insulting her. NOO. Whoops. But I WASN'T!

Ah, I can't bowl for nuts but LALALALA.
It's a million times better than football or soccer, anyway.

YAYness. Although I'm not as pro as Sam or Charles or Walter.. that company.. WELL, at least I don't throw ten gutters in one game. YAY. Better than nothing. :D
And I can roll a bowling ball!
But I still don't like the 4-step approach.

Lalala. So we have to go home and practise that thingie. It's still uber weird. Yeesh.

YAY. BOWLING BOWLING BOWLING. Bowling is LOVE.
I can't bear to see the shitty scores I get tomorrow. It's discouraging. LOL. Oh well.
